In addition, many providers are eligible to submit your claim directly to Green Shield. For example, massage therapy, physiotherapy, chiropractic, acupuncture, chiropody/podiatry, counselling, naturopath, speech therapy and vision services providers.

If you prefer to fill out and mail your claims submissions, all forms, including some specialty forms, are available on greenshield.ca.

Before mailing your claim, please ensure that you have:

Identified yourself with your group and contract number (shown on your Identification Card).
Signed the claim form.

Ambulance

Present your GSC benefits card.

If you are required to pay for these services, submit the itemized receipt for reimbursement.

Prescription drugs

Submit itemized receipts (specifying name of drug, date purchased, drug identification number, drug cost and amount paid).

You can submit claims online at greenshield.ca.

Extended health benefits

Submit itemized receipts and required documentation, if any (i.e., doctor’s prescription, referral, provincial plan statement).

You can submit claims online at greenshield.ca.

Vision care benefits

Submit itemized receipts from the dispensing optometrist or optician.

Note: Instead of returning your receipt to you, GSC produces an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) statement. This statement provides information that may be required for tax purposes (like the information provided on a receipt) as well as any deductibles, maximums, or co-payments applied to the payment of your claim. This statement can also be used to submit Co-ordination of Benefit (COB) claims if you have other coverage. Please keep a copy of all receipts and forms for your records before submitting claims to GSC.

You can also submit claims online at greenshield.ca.

Dental benefits

For the first appointment, provide your dentist with your GSC plan number and ID. The dentist can connect with GSC and tell you if the service is covered, and for how much. Many dentists will file the claim for you.
